Special Abilities
-----------------

Combat prowess
	You add +1 damage to one type of weapon attack of your choice: melee
	weapon attacks or ranged weapon attacks. Enabler.

Improved edge
	Choose one of your Edge stats that is 0. It increases to 1. Enabler. 

No need for weapons
	When you make an unarmed attack (such as a punch or kick), it counts as
	a medium weapon instead of a light weapon. Enabler.

Pressing your luck
	You can choose to automatically succeed on one task without rolling, as
	long as the task's difficulty is no higher than 6. When you do so,
	however, you also trigger a GM intrusion as if you had rolled a 1. The
	intrusion doesn't invalidate the success, but it probably qualifies it
	in some fashion. You can do this one time, although the ability renews
	each time you make a ten-hour recovery roll.


Skills
------

Overwatch (Pool:Intellect, Cost:1)
	You use a ranged weapon to target a limited area (such as a doorway, a
	hallway, or the eastern side of the clearing) and make an attack against
	the next viable target to enter that area. This works like a wait
	action, but you also negate any benefit the target would have from
	cover, position, surprise, range, illumination, or visibility. Further,
	you inflict 1 additional point of damage with the attack. You can remain
	on overwatch as long as you wish, within reason. Action.

Divert attacks (Pool:Speed, Cost:4, Inability)
	For one minute, you automatically deflect or dodge any ranged projectile
	attacks. However, on your next turn after you're attacked with ranged
	projectiles, all your other actions are hindered. Action to initiate.

Adept at leveraging risk, and you are trained in tasks that involve some element
of chance, such as playing games or choosing between two or three apparently
equal options (Trained)

Heavy weapons (Practiced)
	Heavy Weapons

Light weapons (Practiced)
	Light Weapons

Medium weapons (Practiced)

Background
----------
A Psychic Knight is also known as a Warrior

Psychic Knight
You're a good ally to have in a fight. You know how to use weapons and defend
yourself. Depending on the genre and setting in question, this might mean
wielding a sword and shield in the gladiatorial arena, an AK-47 and a bandolier
of grenades in a savage firefight, or a blaster rifle and powered armor when
exploring an alien planet. Warriors are physical, action-oriented people.
They're more likely to overcome a challenge using force than by other means, and
they often take the most straightforward path toward their goals.

Risk Taking
It's part of your nature to question what others think can't or shouldn't be
done. You're not insane, of course-you wouldn't attempt to leap across a
mile-wide chasm just because you were dared. There's impossible and then there's
the just barely possible. You like to push the latter further than others,
because it gives you a rush of satisfaction and pleasure when you succeed. The
more you succeed, the more you find yourself looking for that next risky
challenge to try yourself against.

Human
You are the definition of the average humanoid. As a group, they have average
might, speed and intellect. But behind the average human lies a saga of untapped
potential, a story poised to leap the bounds of the ordinary and venture into
the realm of the extraordinary.

Focuses Mind Over Matter
You can telekinetically move objects with your mind without physically touching
them.

Choose how you became involved in the adventure:
- It seemed like there were equal odds that the other PCs wouldn't succeed,
which sounded good to you.
- You think the tasks ahead will present you with unique and fulfilling
challenges.
- One of your biggest risks failed to go your way, and you need money to help
pay that debt.
- You bragged that you never saw a risk you didn't like, which is how you
reached your current point.

Background Connection
---------------------
Your older sibling is an infamous character who has been disgraced.

Focus Connection
----------------
Pick one other PC. They are especially sensitive to the use of your flashier
focus abilities, and occasionally they become dazzled for a few rounds, which
hinders their actions.

Notes
-----

Possible player intrusions based on your character type:
Perfect Setup
You're fighting at least three foes and each one is standing in exactly the
right spot for you to use a move you trained in long ago, allowing you to attack
all three as a single action. Make a separate attack roll for each foe. You
remain limited by the amount of Effort you can apply on one action.

Old Friend
A comrade in arms from your past shows up unexpectedly and provides aid in
whatever you're doing. They are on a mission of their own and can't stay longer
than it takes to help out, chat for a while after, and perhaps share a quick
meal.

Weapon Break
Your foe's weapon has a weak spot. In the course of the combat, it quickly
becomes damaged and moves two steps down the object damage track.

Nimble
+4 to your Speed Pool.
Granted from Risk Taking

Possible GM intrusion from your focus:
One mental slip, and moving objects drop or fragile objects break. Sometimes the
wrong item moves, falls, or breaks.
